Taking advantage of the presence of our prestigious guests at **[ Passion for Knowledge - Quantum13](www.quantum13.eu )** festival, a very special workshop called the **Nobel Pitch** will take place at the nanoGUNE Seminar next Tuesday, 1 October. This special session is coordinated by Ikerbasque and is based on what is known as the **"elevator pitch"** , that is, presenting a short, simple, clear and interesting summary of an idea or a project. The president of Ikerbasque, Fernando Cosio, will participate in the workshop as chairman of the session. | ---|--- **16 young researchers have been selected **to present their "elevator pitch" and explain their main research project or idea, in less than 5 minutes, to some of the most prominent international scientist in their fields, the Nobel Laureates: * Aaron CIECHANOVER, biology * Claude COHEN-TANNOUDJI, physics * Dudley HERSCHBACH, chemical-physics * Jean-Marie LEHN, chemistry The session will be **opened to up to 60 participants** that can join into a collective discussion about breakthrough ideas and general topics of the advancement of science with the Committee after the presentations.
